Just before Christmas, the Rockies’ bullpen shopping appears done. They have acquired hard-throwing right-hander Matt Lindstrom from the Astros, The Denver Post has confirmed.

Afer combing over the free agent market for weeks, the Rockies found another solution — a trade for a power a arm. Lindstrom is an interesting case. He had 21 saves before the all-star break last year, then posted a 7.50 ERA in the second half. His closing experience is what the Rockies were seeking in right-handed depth to pair with Rafael Betancourt and Matt Belisle, who underwent offseason knee surgery.

MLB.com was the first to report the deal. The Astros’ website said that the Rockies traded right-handed pitcher Jonnathan Aristil and left-handed pitcher Wes Musick in exchange for Lindstrom.

The Post had mentioned Lindstrom as a trade target this offseason, but he moved to the backburner as the Rockies eyed free agents Chad Qualls, Aaron Heilman and Jon Rauch. Lindstrom is due to make roughly $2.5-$3 million in arbitration.
